Cnoc Fillibhear Bheag Stone Circle View all content for Cnoc Fillibhear Bheag

This has to be the most blatantly sexual circle! Essentially a ring of stones, some missing, some fallen, surround an enormous phallus addressing the triple goddess with Sleeping Beauty providing the backdrop. As with the other Callanish circles (and there are 21 others discovered at present) the positioning towards Sleeping Beauty is paramount, and like the main Callanish site, this one has lunar alignment. However it's the sexuality of these stones that impresses. The phallus is replete with glans and whorls of quartz stream from the "eye" in a representation of semen. The Goddess is represented as maiden by the smooth white stone on the left, as mother by the reddish central stone, which has unmistakable breasts and as wise woman by the right stone, tall and more impenetrable. Staying in the Smiths' house, which is all of 300 yards away from this site, is the perfect location to visit at all hours of the day or night... Location is dead easy, right beside the main road (on the left) as you come into Callanish village (before the cattle grid!)
